Burton Bradstock - all beaches

This seaside stretch boasts striking golden cliffs that are sure to take your breath away. However, it's important to exercise caution when wading or swimming, particularly if you have little ones in tow, as the ocean floor drops off sharply in some areas.

This beach is absolutely lovely and well-maintained. If you're driving, you'll need to pay £2.50 for 2 hours, £5 for 4 hours, or £7.50 for the whole day, but National Trust members can park for free. The car park has clean toilets, and there's a fantastic restaurant called Hive Beach Cafe that also offers takeaway options. It's a dog-friendly beach, and you can even take a coastal walk and walk back along the beach if the tides allow. There's disabled parking available, as well as benches suitable for wheelchair access and other seating options.

The pebble beach is stunning. It's just a quick walk from the parking lot, but when we arrived, we found that the beach was deserted and we had it all to ourselves.

This stunning beach is a true gem worth discovering. However, it's important to exercise caution when approaching the cliffs as they may be unstable. Fortunately, visitors can take advantage of the ample parking and restroom facilities provided. For those looking to grab a bite, the Anchor Inn offers delicious meals, but reservations are highly recommended.

We stayed 200 yards away from the beach and took a walk along the coastal path from Eype beach to Seatown. It's important to note that a certain level of fitness is necessary as there are some steep climbs. The route is clearly marked and is about 3 miles round trip. It's definitely worth it to have a drink and a meal at Seatown.

West Bay is an absolute gem that I adore visiting for leisurely strolls. The serene atmosphere is perfect for taking long walks or simply soaking up the sun on the beach. The village is home to charming little shops that offer handmade ice cream in unique and delicious flavors. Convenient parking options are available nearby, making it easy to access the beach from any preferred location.
